As web.xml belongs to the web-app specs this calls for trouble. It definitely would not be portable, as every solution would depend on the XML-parser used by the specific servlet-engine...
One way might be to modify the dtd web.xml is based upon... but it will mean an eternal struggle. Do you really need more than one web.xml per web-application or can you split your stuff into more than one web-application, each with its own instance of web.xml and struts-config.xml? hope this helps Alexander Jesse -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 23, 2001 6:26 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Multiple web.xml's? Does anyone know if it is possible to use multiple modularized web.xml files (similar to multiple struts-config.xml files) ie Tomcat will read all web.xml files and "merge" them together? Cheers, Dave
